Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am the owner of a 2003 chevrolet silverado 2500 truck. approximately one month after the truck was purchased, it was being driven at about 45 mph and began to lose power while being driven. pushing on the accelerator made no change. the truck was taken to the dealership from where it was purchased, they tested the truck and reported no problem found. this problem has continued with the truck since that time. the truck has been in service on 4 different occasions, and the dealership reports that they have fixed the problem by replacing the wiring harness, replacing broken wires, replacing wiring that is broken inside insulation etc. this has not resolved the problem to date. the most recent incident occurred when the assistant service manager from the dealership took the truck out for a test drive (for a total of 120 miles), and he reported that the truck never lost power. i picked up the truck and drove it home and later that evening was driving the truck at approximately 45 miles per hour, when the truck began to lose power. several times when this has occurred, i have narrowly avoided being hit by other vehicles on the road because the truck loses all power within 20 seconds. *tr
